Week 27

How far along?  27 Weeks
Size of Baby:  Rutabaga
Total weight gain/loss: 9 lbs. according to dr. appt.
Size of belly: 28 cm.
Baby’s heartbeat: 142 bpm
Best moment this week:  Having so much time with Wes over the holiday weekend!  Since this Fourth of July weekend was rained out, we watched movies, went shopping for baby, and spent some time with m parents to celebrate my birthday early.
Miss Anything? Not pregnant related, but I am missing my lotion.  To keep my poison ivy dried out I can’t moisturize my skin.  I just feel like my skin is thirsty, so hoping the poison ivy starts clearing up!
Movement: Baby has probably been the most active this week of any so far.  Wes was watching my belly and the baby started moving.  He said “its like your belly is doing the wave!” 🙂
Food cravings: watermelon and sweets! Brownie batter (minus the egg) is the best!
Anything making you queasy or sick:  Not this week, feeling good!
Gender prediction:  Since I have been so stuck on thinking it is a boy, I have gotten excited this week thinking it could be a girl still.  I don’t know why but this week I’m starting waver and think it could be either!
Labor Signs: nope
Symptoms:  major hip pain, achy back and can’t get comfy, exhausted, and a hearty appetite.
Belly Button in or out? In, although it is starting to look more flat and very stretched!
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy for the most part.  There have been a few days that I have been moody for no reason.  It’s like I get up knowing myself that I am moody and not sure why or how to stop.  It’s a little weird not wanting to be moody but knowing you are, it’s like I’m not in control of my emotions and body.
Looking forward to:  Starting to get more of my cloth diapers!  I’m so excited to invest and start getting my fluff mail in and collection going! 🙂
